Riley Creek Tunnel

The Riley Creek Tunnel in front of Paisley Park has become a special place for Prince fans making the pilgrimage to Paisley Park. It has essentially become the new Grafitti Bridge with touching tributes of love to our Prince. Prince often used the path to walk and/or ride his bike. I know that the tunnel is public property, but I hope there are efforts to allow the tunnel to continue to be a place for Prince fans to pay tribute to him and to preserve the tributes that are already there. There is a special connection that Prince and, now, Prince fans can have with that tunnel and I hope that connection can continue.

This makes me tear up. I love the outdoors and biking and can just picture him enjoying himself.

Hi all,

I have some pics from when I visited the memorial at PP, but I've never uploaded anything to this site before and I'm having trouble uploading my pics. I have one photo of the Riley Creek Tunnel to share if anyone can help?

They haven't removed the 'graffiti' yet. I think there would be s huge backlash if they did. There's no reason to. You can't see it from the highway, it's not an eyesore at all.
